Academy Award nominee Quvenzhane Wallis (Beasts of the Southern Wild) stars as Annie, a young, happy foster kid who`s also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York in 2014. Originally left by her parents as a baby with the promise that they`d be back for her someday, it`s been a hard knock life ever since with her mean foster mom Miss Hannigan (Cameron Diaz). But everything`s about to change when the hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks (Jamie Foxx) - advised by his brilliant VP, Grace (Rose Byrne) and his shrewd and scheming campaign advisor, Guy (Bobby Cannavale) - makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes her in. Stacks believes he`s her guardian angel, but Annie`s self-assured nature and bright, sun-will-come-out-tomorrow outlook on life just might mean it`s the other way around.
